So I have always been interested in playing drums and I am in no way an expert at what her is doing on the drums but I can tell this is a crazy drum line
I've watched them play this song a number of times during the Jon Theodore era and this is just as good as the man himself, some nights. No joke. Excellent work
Figuring out what to to play is half the battle. I feel like I’m cheating when I watch you play this. Not only do you blow that out of the park, you execute it amazingly. The endurance you have while preforming, this is nothing to overlook. You are truly amazing. The Mars Volta is my favorite band, solely because of the drums. Spent years trying Learn these songs on drums ( The reason I picked up drums in the first place, yet I had to settle for learning these on guitar) . You make it look easy. Please give us more. What you are doing is extremely appreciated. Would definitely be willing to $$$ pay $$$ for a lesson. Reach out to me if you are willing and capable. I speak English, but my friend can translate almost anything ( If that’s an issue ). Will do about anything to learn how you do these songs, especially Cygnus! If you are ever in the FL area would love to write and record with you!
Respect! I don’t play drums but I know this is out of this world, even the most technical jazz drummers would be scratching their heads trying to figure this song out.
Brother you are unreal and insanely talented. All your skill and what I can only imagine is a ridiculous amount of dedication to your craft bleeds through.
Had to chime in as well! As someone who has attempted to play this as a hobby, YOU KILLED IT!! Very awesome to stumble across this video! I will be using this as a guide.
one of the first basslines I ever learned, Jon and Juan truly the heart and soul of the band. But TbH I saw tMV for the first time this year and they did not fucking dissapoint, even with basically all new musicians, they really picked some god tier talents and brought the heat! my favorite band, one of my favorite drummers and holy shit you nailed it! bravo~!
@@donotair_ i think there were a few shows just after amp released before he left the band and they played alot of amp in '06 im not sure abt tetra though
Yeah pretty sure Jon Theodore wasn't around at this point in time, regardless of that fact, he would be proud of this dude. It's a very very good cover. Inspiring!
Few understand how insane this drum part is
We all understand it
@@p_snimon_enis9850 it’s a meme but youre gay so u don’t get it
John Theodore just doesn’t get the recognition he deserves! This was well done. Goes to show, don’t need a big as kit to be bombastic!!!
Wait, which part it’s over 16 minutes long 😆

You saw Jon play this live? Definitely a little jealous. That's a bucket list deal for me 😂😂. Not joking.
This song is a marathon for a drummer. Kudos my brother
One of the most important bands in the last two decades. At The Drive In was awesome but I doubt anyone could have predicted the insanity that is TMV.
Good grief all 16 minutes. You have my praises sir 🎉
dude this is absolutley insane. Seriously, the intro to this song is bonkers. Good for you man
As far as TMV drum covers go, this is absolute peak
Dude!!!! This was by far the best cover of this song I've seen to date.
I feel like this is objectively one of the better songs ever written
11:03 goddwam, this part of the song hits that sweet spot soooo goooood

Dude. You're a fucking rock star. Incredible.
Extraordinario. SIn palabras.
Beating those things like they owe you money. True Volta style, rock on man
50th time watched this, and also showed frens. Literally made me love mars Volta even more than I thought I could
PHENOMENAL! Best cover of this song on UA-cam
Been waiting for a flawless drum cover of Tetragrammaton for so many years and finally I got it. Keep it up!
Dude what a marathon. So clean, with such complicated changes and cues. Incredible.
i love how at the end of the video his t-shirt is completely drenched in sweat compared to the beginning
Dude, that Ludwig kit sounds fantastic.
Respect! I don’t play drums but I know this is out of this world, even the most technical jazz drummers would be scratching their heads trying to figure this song out.
Desde que escuché este tema que quiero ver un cover de batería completo, hiciste que mi espera cesara. Te quedó exquisito.
Yo quisiera uno de Theodore tocando este tema.
Brother you are unreal and insanely talented. All your skill and what I can only imagine is a ridiculous amount of dedication to your craft bleeds through.
This is forsure the best cover of tetra drums I've seen ever .🙏🤘🙌🏻

Awesome cover, very well played! thanks for sharing!

Dude!! I love LOVE how you are feeling this groove! Such a complex and layered song and you crushed it. Thanks for sharing man!!

Jon? I thought this album was Thomas?
No sir…it was jons last album
What a boss performance!
Dude, wow! That was epic!
great work! very few people can play songs like this at the level you’re playing.
You're an absolute machine. Awesome covers!
This was a big help in transcribing the drum part. You're awesome.

my favorite band, one of my favorite drummers and holy shit you nailed it! bravo~!
Eva has been there since the start and they only added a new Sax/keyboard and drummer
Sadly never saw them with Jon, but I did see them perform when they were with Thomas Pridgen which was an absolute blast
Lots of respect to you man, amazing job
Here’s the thing…it’s hard but what the fuck else is out there like this for a drummer to bite into and DEVOUR…I watched this smiling the whole time
Played so clean. Nice work.
No puedo creer que recién descubrí esto!! SOS un groso
One of my favorite songs of all time. Still listen to it often to this day. Amazing energy, and you matched it sir. Bravo!

I’ve been fortunate to watch Jon play this up close many times & you really, really hit it out of the park. Much respect. 💜🤘
when have you seen jon play tetragramamaton in person?
I was about to say the same
@@donotair_ i think there were a few shows just after amp released before he left the band and they played alot of amp in '06 im not sure abt tetra though
Jon never played any Amputechture songs live, he was fired before the tour.
Yeah pretty sure Jon Theodore wasn't around at this point in time, regardless of that fact, he would be proud of this dude. It's a very very good cover. Inspiring!
Damn. Nailed it.
They were never the same without Jon . Cheers man this song is a beast to play
Dale!! Sensacional!
Holy shit. Nicely done!
Very fucking awesome dude
Absolutely fantastic dude!
Brutal!!!
Sos muy crack! aplaudo de pie a las horas y el esfuerzo que se nota que hay! Invencible, felicitaciones!
